- Method Detail
  - setUnsortedModel
```
void setUnsortedModel(TableModel value)
```
    Sets the base model to use.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the base model
  - getUnsortedModel
```
TableModel getUnsortedModel()
```
    returns the underlying model, can be null.
    
    Returns:
    
    the current model
  - setCaseSensitive
```
void setCaseSensitive(boolean value)
```
    Sets whether the sorting is case-sensitive.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - true if case-sensitive
  - isCaseSensitive
```
boolean isCaseSensitive()
```
    Returns whether the sorting is case-sensitive.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if case-sensitive
  - isSorted
```
boolean isSorted()
```
    returns whether the table was sorted.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the table was sorted
  - getSortColumn
```
int getSortColumn()
```
    Returns the sort column.
    
    Returns:
    
    the sort column
  - isAscending
```
boolean isAscending()
```
    Returns whether sorting is ascending or not.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if ascending

    isSorted(), getSortColumn()
  - getActualRow
```
int getActualRow(int visibleRow)
```
    Returns the actual underlying row the given visible one represents. Useful for retrieving "non-visual" data that is also stored in a TableModel.
    
    Parameters:
    
    visibleRow - the displayed row to retrieve the original row for
    
    Returns:
    
    the original row
  - getDisplayRow
```
int getDisplayRow(int internalRow)
```
    Returns the "visible" row derived from row in the actual table model.
    
    Parameters:
    
    internalRow - the row in the actual model
    
    Returns:
    
    the row in the sorted model, -1 in case of an error
  - sort
```
void sort(int columnIndex)
```
    sorts the table over the given column (ascending).
    
    Parameters:
    
    columnIndex - the column to sort over
  - sort
```
void sort(int columnIndex,
          boolean ascending)
```
    sorts the table over the given column, either ascending or descending.
    
    Parameters:
    
    columnIndex - the column to sort over
    
    ascending - ascending if true, otherwise descending
